The New York Public Library is currently digitizing the papers of Samuel J. Tilden. The papers will be accessible via the Library’s web site early in 2013. In conjunction with its making this important archival resource available online, NYPL is offering research fellowships of up to $5,000 to support research projects related to Tilden’s circle of activity in New York and the United States during the 19th century.
NYPL’s Tilden archival research fellowships aim to support traditional archival research and narrative historical writing, but also seek to engage audiences beyond advanced researchers using the Tilden papers and other primary sources online. Successful candidates for the fellowship will therefore bring fresh insight to the Tilden papers and also a desire to explore the creative space of public scholarship.
